Two pounds of carbon dioxide (CO2) as an ideal gas executes a Carnot power cycle while operating between thermal reservoirs at 540 and 100oF. The pressures at the initial and final states of the isothermal expansion are 400 and 200 Ib/in2, respectively. The specific heat ratio is k - 1.24. Determine the thermal efficiency, the work for the isothermal expansion, in Btu, and the work for the adiabatic expansion, in Btu.

Ahouse has the following electrical appliance usage (1) single 40w lamp used for 4 hours per day (2) single 60w fan used for 12 hours per day (3) single 200w refrigerator that runs 24 hours per day with compressor run 12 hours and off 12 hours find the solar power inverter size in watt with correction factor of 1.25.

Asingle-geared blanking press has a stroke of 200 mm and a rated capacity of 320 kn. a cam driven ram is assumed to be capable of delivering the full press load at constant force during the last 15 percent of a constant-velocity stroke. the camshaft has an average speed of 90 rev/min and is geared to the flywheel shaft at a 6: 1 ratio. the total work done is to include an allowance of 16 percent for friction a) estimate the maximum energy fluctuation b) find the rim weight for an effective diameter of 1.2 m and a coefficient of speed fluctuation of 0.10

Slip occurs via two partial dislocations because of (a) the shorter path of the partial dislocation lines; (b) the lower energy state through partial dislocations; (c) the charge balance.
